Durant at night

[Berry, Mark S]

Talk to me when LeBron wins a championship. And Bird, as we all know,
was on a different level.

If the argument is you can win without a great big man because Bird and
Jordan did it, then I think you're making my argument for me. It takes a
transcendent player to do it at a position other than center (especially
non-PGs). I don't see Bird walking through that door.

Couldn't you say  Lebron James or even Lary Bird are perimeter forwards?
Not too bad of an impact here
